![]() You can play around with this, but it is important to use the chocolate candy coating, it has a great melting point and keeps all the chocolate smooth and creamy. I used two pounds of white candy coating or white chocolate almond bark, a white chocolate bar, AND one bag of white chocolate chips. Want different chocolate? Go for it! Feel free to use milk or semi-sweet chocolate instead of white chocolate for a different change in flavor and appearance.įAQs What Kind of Chocolate Should I Use? If you don’t, it can seize up and become unusable. ![]() If your slow cooker runs hot, you may wish to do this on the warm setting but you need the chocolate to melt on the lowest heat setting possible. ![]() This will make cleanup a breeze because you can just throw the bag away when you’re done.

This candy is great for gift giving during the holiday season, but there is no reason you can’t make this candy all year long. It is easy to assemble and makes a big batch which is perfect for gift giving. We are definitely going to include this crockpot candy recipe in our gifts this year. Grab your containers and give some away, this makes a huge batch! *I would recommend putting in tiny muffin tins OR (even better & easier), dropping by the spoonful (onto wax or parchment paper), creating clusters.This easy crockpot candy could not be easier! Lots of white chocolate, nuts, and pretzels are swirled together in this candy recipe. Larger than I would want to eat in one sitting. One thing I changed halfway through (and would alter completely next time) is that pouring this mixture into muffin tins yielded a very large piece of chocolate. Try to stack the chunks of candy coating towards the center (on top of the chocolate chips).

After making it for myself, it was clear where the mess-ups could occur! I also included several TIPS as I’ve read the reviews and some people have had issues with the original directions.

I’ve joined the community of Crock Pot/slow cooker candy makers.
